Brazil to show FIFA that World Cup prep on track

Brazilian officials are heading to Switzerland to show FIFA that preparations for the 2014 World Cup are on track.

The meeting on Tuesday at FIFA’s headquarters will mark the first encounter between Brazil Sports Minister Aldo Rebelo and FIFA Secretary General Jerome Valcke, whose remarks about Brazil’s readiness earlier this year ignited a feud between the two parties.

Rebelo said the meeting will be important to put the differences behind and get everyone focused on organizing a successful World Cup.
